Zhao Lingyu put away his sword and quickly stepped forward to support the staggering Mo Li.
His sharp-browed and star-eyed face was filled with sorrow and pity, and his slender fingers gently wiped away the blood stains on Mo Li's face.
Mo Xuan finally broke free from the spider silk and staggered over.
"Li'er!"
She hugged her sister in her arms and stared warily at the man who suddenly appeared.
Zhao Lingyu took a half step back and bowed gracefully.
"I am Zhao Lingyu of the Tiansheng Dynasty. I was passing by here and saw the two girls in danger, so I came to their rescue. I have no ill intentions."
At this moment, an old man who was guarding the way behind him spoke at the right time.
"The Second Prince saved you, why don't you thank him?"
"Prince?"
Mo Xuan's spider legs tightened unconsciously, protecting her sister tighter.
She had heard of the reputation of the Tiansheng Dynasty, and she knew that the disaster her fellow clan was in today was all because of the Third Prince.
Zhao Lingyu seemed to see her wariness and sighed.
"After I heard that my third brother had issued a bounty for the Black-bellied Brocade Spider Ancestor, I immediately rushed here. I didn't expect that I would still be a step too late."
He looked around at the valley full of dried corpses, and his eyes showed sincere sadness.
"Third brother, you've really gone too far this time."
"The Third Prince has issued a bounty on the ancestor?"
Mo Li raised his head weakly, a hint of hatred flashing in his eyes.
They have been desperately fleeing these days, so they had no idea about the reward.
However, the reward can only explain everything that is happening before our eyes.
"Third brother has issued a bounty for the list of medicinal ingredients for the God-Forging Pill. I heard that many forces have joined forces to besiege the Ten Thousand Spider Valley in order to obtain the God-Forging Pill."
Zhao Lingyu took out a jade bottle from his sleeve and handed it to Mo Xuan.
"This is a secret healing elixir made by the royal family. It's important for the two girls to heal their wounds first."
Mo Xuan looked at the bottle of pills hesitantly, but her sister's increasingly weak breathing forced her to take it.
As the pill entered his stomach, a warm current immediately flowed to his limbs and bones, and the broken spider legs began to heal at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"Why are you helping us?" Mo Xuan remained vigilant. "Isn't the royal family planning to wipe out the Black-bellied Silk Spider clan?"
Zhao Lingyu gave a bitter laugh: "Third brother, you resorted to any means necessary to forge the divine elixir, even harming innocent people. This is truly against the will of heaven."
As he spoke, he suddenly bowed.
"For what happened today, I apologize to you two on behalf of the royal family."
This action stunned the two sisters. Mo Li struggled to sit up: "Your Highness, there is no need to do this. We-"
"Third brother's ambitions go far beyond this."
Zhao Lingyu lowered his voice, looked up at the two sisters, and there was a sincere light in his eyes.
"If you two are willing, you can temporarily come to my house to recuperate. Third Brother will definitely not be able to hurt you again."
"We want revenge."
Mo Xuan suddenly interrupted him, a cold flame burning in his eyes.
"Third Prince, all those who participated in the massacre must not be spared. Will His Highness still take us in?"
The corners of Zhao Lingyu's mouth rose slightly, and then his expression turned worried.
"Third brother is surrounded by many experts. If you two go now, it would be tantamount to committing suicide. There is no rush for revenge."
Before he could finish his words, Mo Li suddenly grabbed his sleeve.
"Your Highness, can you help us? As long as we can avenge our people, we are willing to do anything!"
Mo Li knew very well that it was impossible for her and her sister to seek revenge alone.
Moreover, the Second Prince who saved them, although a member of the same royal family as the Third Prince, may not share the same aspirations.
To put it another way, she was fed up with this life of escape.
I originally thought that I could find refuge by fleeing to the Ten Thousand Zhu Valley, but I didn't expect that after going through so much hardship to get here, I would see such a tragic scene.
She really couldn't think of who else in the Tiansheng Dynasty could protect them except the Second Prince in front of her?
You have to know that the entire Tiansheng Dynasty is now in a frenzy of hunting down black-bellied brocade spiders. She and her sister are in a state now, so it is unknown whether they can leave the Ten Thousand Spider Valley alive, let alone take revenge.
Zhao Lingyu gently held Mo Li's hand and spoke in a soft tone.
"I can provide you two with training resources. If you want revenge in the future, I will never stop you. After all, Third Brother will have to pay for what he did."
These words made Mo Li let down all her guard, and a ripple appeared in her beautiful eyes.
At the darkest moment of her life, Zhao Lingyu, a handsome prince, appeared before her.
Not only did he save her, but he was also so elegant and graceful. At this moment, Mo Li's heart and eyes were full of him.
In the distance, the last ray of sunset was swallowed by dark clouds.
Zhao Lingyu took off his brocade robe and draped it over Mo Li's shoulders, gently wiping the blood off her face.
No one noticed the glimmer of success that flashed in his eyes the moment he lowered his head.
"Let's leave here first." He helped the two sisters up. "Some things need to be considered carefully."
Mo Xuan hesitated for a moment. Although she still had many grudges against the human race, she had no better choice at the moment.
She couldn't let her sister continue to follow her and live a life of escape.
"Thank you very much, Your Highness."
…
Palace.
Zhao Lingyu held a dancer in his arms and played with her black silk jade feet.
"Uncle Qin, are the sisters settled?"
Qin Tian nodded.
"They have been arranged to stay in Xiaoxiang Villa. These two are twin sisters, both direct descendants of the Poison Spider Lady, and both can open that secret realm."
Then he said with some regret.
"There's just one thing I don't quite understand. We could have just used force on them, but five of them died. Was such a huge sacrifice necessary?"
